NAL Performance Series™ Product Family
NALCORE™
High-Rigidity. Medium-Density. Engineered Differently.
NALCORE™ was developed as a performance-focused alternative to traditional chipboard and URB products. Designed with a high-rigidity construction and calendared surface, NALCORE™ delivers enhanced performance while optimizing material usage.
NALVista™ Single-Ply SBS
See the possibility: A Clearer View of SBS Performance
NALVista™ is a single-ply SBS sheet platform built for commercial print, folding carton and specialty packaging. It offers a bright print surface, solid structural integrity and dependable convertibility on press and in the finishing room.
Because N.A.L. sources the board, you are not locked into one mill’s grade. We match the grade to your job: print process, folding performance, caliper, brightness, finishing needs and any food-contact documentation your application requires.

NALSignia™ Laminated SBS
Make the impression substantial. Signature Presence, Engineered in Layers
Most mill SBS tops out around 24–28 pt. NALSignia™ goes further. N.A.L. laminates qualified SBS facings into two-ply or three-ply constructions, reaching finished calipers up to .125″ with the rigidity and hand feel that premium pieces demand.
We design each construction around the job. Facings can be matched or selected for purpose, and every build is checked for adhesive compatibility, curl control, bond strength and end-use fit before it goes into production.
Availability at a Glance
| Spec | NALSignia™ |
| Construction | 2-ply or 3-ply laminated SBS |
| Finished caliper | Up to .125″ |
| Max sheet size | 53″ wide × 144″ long |
| Form | Sheets or finished reels |
| Adhesive and compliance | Set by end use |
Whether a build is two-ply or three-ply depends on available stock calipers and the finished caliper you need. Final caliper and tolerance are confirmed through construction trials.
NALD™
Lightweight Protection Without Compromise

NALD™ was engineered for customers seeking a lighter-weight protective packaging solution while maintaining durability and handling performance. Designed with automated suction-cup work cells in mind, NALD™ helps improve efficiency while reducing material weight.
Large Format Capability Without Traditional Limits Standard paperboard products serve a purpose. Prime grades offer improved visual appearance and premium surfaces. But when customers need solutions specifically designed to improve performance, efficiency, protection, or manufacturing flexibility, the NAL Performance Series™ delivers technologies unavailable through traditional paperboard suppliers.
NALD+ SHEET
Advanced Moisture Protection
NALD+™ delivers all the benefits of NALD™ while adding a moisture-resistant barrier designed to protect products in demanding environments. Its waterproof layer helps prevent water penetration for up to 10 hours, making it ideal for applications where moisture exposure is a concern.
Tomson Synergy Line
The Tomson Synergy Line™ expands the possibilities of paperboard design and manufacturing by enabling large-format sheet production and integrated laminating capabilities. The system allows customers to specify dimensions that better fit their application rather than designing around conventional sheet sizes.
